Geocache Description:

Some time ago I was in an airport bookshop waiting for my flight and looking for something to read. I was in the non-fiction section when my eyes alighted on "Alex's Adventures in Numberland". It looked interesting, so I bought it.

It turned out to be a fantastic read and also gave me heaps of ideas for puzzles.


Lately I have been putting out some more diffcult puzzles, but I have also been reminded of the need for easier ones to get new finders going on puzzles. So for this cache I have gone back to basics. There are no layers, or complicated cryptography, just the coordinates as I have given below.

S 55 35 3245 E 405 11 1554
